[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Felt like I was back on Park Avenue watching all the Office workers commute and wind and dine on the street. Granted it was a Thursday night unlike when I went to Rome and Florence, I noticed the latter two did not have that vibe at all.

Do basically all the hustlers of Italy migrate to Milan? It seems to be the only place with decent jobs and offices of large corporations.

Also, does anyone have experience working in Milan or doing business there? Seems like a big expat community but all the workers I heard were speaking solely Italian so might be hard to integrate [/quote]

Sounds like you might like Epcot[/quote]

Not the OP, but I liked EPCOT.

We visited Milan for a couple days and while it was fine, it doesn’t compare to the more popular Italian cities.  We ended up in Milan by chance.  Flying into Rome and Venice were twice the price of flying into Milan, so we flew into Milan.  While we didn’t love Milan, but I’m glad to have visited the city.

Florence was our favorite city and where we spent most of our time.  We also went to Venice.  Luckily, we didn’t encounter the hordes of crowds that are usually associated with Venice.  There were plenty of tourists, but it wasn’t terrible.  At the end of our trip we went to Lake Como, which was probably the least favorite part of our trip.  The lake, mountains and views are impossibly beautiful, but the village actually felt like EPCOT.  Nothing wrong with EPCOT, but Como probably felt the least authentic of our trip to Italy.  It surely didn’t help that it was so crowded that it felt like we were in a theme park.
